Delta Rockwell 24" Scrollsaw circa 1959. Another machine brought back from years of neglect.

Before:


After:








This one was actually not in too terrible shape. It needed a good cleaning, de-rusting of the table and other minor mechanical, some new clothes, and minor electrical work. It's running good now and ready for work.

Now if I can find an OEM stand an belt cover, she'll be fully redone.

Thanks for looking.
Jay

Nice job! I suspect this is a smooth running saw compared to the majority of scroll saws made today.
